📣ENTRIES OPEN JUNE 1📣

Look, we aren’t trying to break the bank, especially with fuel prices being so high, and after all we are just giving the kids a chance to break out the shoats for a weekend in the ring.

So in light of keeping things affordable and family oriented, we give you a weekend out that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg!

We hope that you will join us this Fathers’ day weekend in Durango for a jackpot.

Entries open June 1 on the Showman.app

⭐️Please note that this is a CASH ONLY jackpot and card or check WILL NOT be accepted. With this being said, no payment will be made on the app but instead when you get to the show and check in
